Warm inflation is a well-motivated and generalized framework of inflation, describing a coupled inflaton-radiation bath. In this work, we investigate a warm inflation model with a quartic potential and a composite dissipation coefficient…

Warm inflation is commonly studied under the assumption that the stochastic force sourcing inflaton fluctuations is Markovian. Realistic thermal systems, however, possess finite relaxation times and can therefore generate colored noise with…

In the ``natural inflation'' model, the inflaton potential is periodic. We show that Planck scale physics may induce corrections to the inflaton potential, which is also periodic with a greater frequency. Such high frequency corrections…
